Madeleine had used the heirloom of the White Mothers. She knew that after today, considering the wealth of knowledge their enemies had, these things would be exposed. However, these weren’t the worries on her mind. In fact, she had no worries to speak of. Her mind was clear.
She glided across the skies, her bare, delicate feet seemingly playing soothing lodies on the hearts of all those around her.
‘I see… everything…’
Madeleine’s sensitivity to energy seed to be at an all ti high. She could feel the darkness swirling around so, and the fear around others. She could even faintly feel that if she tried to manipulate these emotions, she very well could.
All the types of energies that seed hidden to everyone else was laid out before her.
If Dyon heard Madeleine describe these things to him, the first image that would pop into his mind would be of Luna. That pitiful, petite figure, stepping off and into a chasm of scathing wind will sotis appeared into his dreams… How could he forget?
Hadn’t Luna manipulated Dyon’s emotions even into forgetting his first love Amphorae? She seed to grasp all the energies of the world as well.
However, this still seed different. Madeleine didn’t have such a weight on her heart. The energies flowed far smoother for her, as though just a thought could make them bend to her will. She didn’t feel the world-shattering pressure that Luna once had on her shoulders.
Maybe it was that Madeleine and Luna shared a constitution. Considering Luna was far older than Madeleine at the ti, she had grasped the essence of Goddess’ Disposition as well.
The light shattering of a barrier resounded as a Presence surged into the skies. At that mont, it wasn’t just emotions Madeleine could see, but all types of energies, even ones originating from the body. With a single thought, her Presence broke through the Marquis realm, through the Duke realm, and entered true Kingship.
Madeleine faintly smiled. All fighting had stopped in her Presence. Her Marquis level Presence hadn’t been enough to make any substantial changes to the landscape of the battlefield, but now she felt that everything was within her grasp.
Madeleine ignored the negative emotions swirling within her fellow disciples. Instead, she trained in on faint traces of sealing qi. She knew that when Dyon saved Yandevere, she had had a seal etched into her body that used her own ridians as a formation. This ant that all traitors likely had a similar plight.
It only took an instant of Madeleine to find them all.
“Begone.”
Hundreds of disciples began disappearing, one after another. Without much surprise, even the two pseudo-dao experts helping Fiona disappeared as well. However, it seed Fiona was still loyal.
Because her divine sense wasn’t as exaggerated as her husband’s, Madeleine could only fly across the city to the best of her abilities, expelling traitor after traitor.
A wave of fatigue was overcoming Madeleine’s attempts, but she pushed through, unwilling to stop half way.
The shocking wave of disciples being forcibly expelled from Middle Lily City imdiately caught the attention of those outside the city. But, what could they do? They could only watch.
Still, they still had an upper hand. Because of the sealing formation around the city, Madeleine couldn’t teleport out with her fellow disciples. And, no matter what, the city was still surrounded.
As far as they were concerned, Madeleine was a cornered rat. They also believed that there was no way she knew who were traitors and who weren’t. This likely ant she had been forced to expel anyone even remotely suspicious.
If she was really doing this, this ant that the atmosphere in the city couldn’t be very good. Everyone would be looking over their shoulders, and if there were any rats Madeleine missed, they could easily stir up trouble once again.
To make matters even better, Dyon, their greatest worry, was nowhere to be seen. That ant that the information they received from the instigator was true. True God Sacharro was definitely tied up in a matter too big for him to handle if he hadn’t co to wife’s aid. That or their tight seal on information worked wonders.
Many of these deductions were true. The only one that held so falsehood were their thoughts that Madeleine was expelling individuals at random. But, even still, the situation wasn’t exactly perfect… Especially after Madeleine collapsed from the skies, too tired to continue.
The white-gold of Madeleine’s hair and eyes faded. Her body ached, but because she used [Violet Revival Flas], she had no way of healing herself. Even if she still had access to her life and reincarnation characteristics, she didn’t have the stamina to use them anyway.
Seeing this, Fiona hesitated. After her fear of Madeleine awoke her from her mourning, so things beca clear to her. Since Madeleine could expel her, why hadn’t she? Also, why cripple Cheri instead of just killing her? And finally, once Madeleine did begin expelling people, why was she still here?
“If you want to kill , go ahead and try, but know that even my patience is limited.” Madeleine said, gasping for breath. “If I’m forced to choose between your life and mine, know that I will never choose yours. Even my empathy for you cannot make willingly leave my husband.”
Fiona trembled before she fell to the ground in tears. She understood very well now that the sister she had had all her life truly was a traitor to their Sect…
